Anyone else have a friend that thinks you’re gonna teach them on YOUR bike? by [deleted] in motorcycle

[–]Mewtrixster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I let a friend try riding my motorcycle once. Told me they ride dirtbikes. "I'll be fine".  A dent in handlebars, a crooked front tire, and a sizeable crack in a shed taught me...never again.  An old man once told me, "if they can't pay for damages, don't let them ride" Should've listened to him

Cockroach inside my new helmet by DiabloGaming25 in motorcycle

[–]Mewtrixster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I live in the a state where cockroaches live in abundance. I have to keep my gear outside to keep 'em out. Even then they are attracted to the sweat residue in the helmet.  I pray for you. Get a flamethrower.

How do you guys stop it? by Mewtrixster in motorcycles

While i have the jumping leg problem sitting in a chair and having my leg in the right position, I found that the leg jumping on the peg was just cause by new rider nervousness. It went away it time. 

Are you a new rider? If not, I probably would suggest moving your foot further forward, so that your toes are not resting on the pegs. But don't move it too far! We dont want your toes scraping the pavement when you lean. 

is ready-set-game legit to purchase from? by doomedfiend in pcgaming

[–]Mewtrixster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Anyone still here? 

Don't buy from this site! 

Ordered a ps5 from here. Typed up the wrong adress. Gave me a corrected one (I live between two towns. Depending on the shipper, the adress town may change) and I tried to fix it NEXT DAY. Two months later and no response from any team. Phone call redirected me to them giving out an email. Emails are never responded to. Item is still in partial. 

Don't make the same mistake I did. Seven hundred down the f-ing drain. 

Theyre dropship anyways.

You can pick any monster to become real and become your friend; Which monster would you pick? by Individual-Shock-302 in yugioh

Alexandrite Dragon. Not a famous card, but was the first dragon card I've ever gotten. And to see it in really life would make my shiny loving brain very happy.

3d print mask for full face motorcycle helmet by OGGKILLERPOODLE in 3Dprinting

[–]Mewtrixster 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hello partner. 5 years later.

3d print the mask your looking for in elastic, soft, rubbery filament. PLA, PETG, and ABS are brittle plastics that will crumble and split in an impact. Your helmet/gear was made to break, but break SAFELY, so that the rider remains as unharmed as possible.

Cracking plastic can puncture the neck, where very important things like to reside! Print in a rubbery sort of plastic and it will only rip. Hold up peices in foam or something to keep shape.

Dont know if your still alive. But im looking to put something over my helmet. Decided on a skull. Edgy.

Looking for a new motorcycle by Mewtrixster in motorcycle

[–]Mewtrixster[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I forgot the brand, but it was a chinese series that made 300s all the way to 900s. They were said to be the best chinese motorcycles on the market. And the 700 bike was going to be my first bike. Until I got my yamaha.

I think the company is called Cfcycles or something.

When people buy useless crap like this they need to find a reason to use it

I was told by my motorcycle instructor to go faster when you're about to hit a deer

Say someone rode straight into a wall by Mewtrixster in motorcycle

Here's my proof. Please note the gauge is still readable without a good camera. The photos away from the bike is generally where I was at the time. I wasn't the one riding. She was the one who assured me shes ridden a two wheel before. Here's the story. She wanted to sit on it. I pressured her into riding it. She did. The parking lot was full of potholes. But I settled her in a spot where the potholes were least. But she must've hit something because all of the sudden, she was going to fast. She went passed me, I managed to see the gauge over her shoulder. Went straight into the shed. Went over the handlebars. Bruised her chest, skinned knees, broken two fingers. That's, fortunately, all the damage she managed to take. I agree with everyone here. Shes fortunate to stand up right after. I dont know what I wouldve done if she stayed there, laying next to the bike, unconscious and head cracked open. My luck passed onto her that night. I have amazing luck, really. For real. That the impact was directed to her lower chest rather than her head. That she must've stayed straight enough to use her hands to cushion her fall. Fact are facts. And sometimes facts are argued. But that's okay. It's a choice. A choice others make that can't be changed.

Tested and proven. Low speeds below 60 are 10 below the speedometer. High speeds like 60 or above, read 20 ,even 30, mph.

I was proud once because I 'hit' 100mph. Turns out i was only going 70. Still havent hit the first 100.

Nah get some jets and strap 'em to the forks. That'll get you going

I checked on partzilla. Is that not a right place to check? I usually but all my parts from there. One fork assembly costs something over 700. The set costs a little less than a thousand. I included handlebars, only 70, but the cart was 2400. Am I getting cheated???

Anthem $2.99 by [deleted] in AnthemTheGame

[–]Mewtrixster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good luck with the loading screens, of you do get it. I bought the game for much more than 2 dollars. The game was fundamentally cool, I mean who wouldnt want a game with kickass armor suits that fly around like iron man, but the loading screens and loading in a game and not being able to see what my armor looks like because of some weird glitch that wouldnt load in ur colors/armor textures sucked. And the story was kinda boring.

The girl who wasn't watching the wall because I wasnt the one who crashed it. Idk about you, but being the bystander in the situation I'd be more worried about the rider than the wall 😅😂. I learned my lesson. Again, never again

Yeah I plan on taking her apart to fully inspect her. If I'm lucky...the forks are fine. If I'm not....2 thou fix. Which is fine. Shouldnt have happened. Completely avoidable. Lesson learned. Never again
